Have you guys heard Dengue Fever? I hadn’t until my fellow PiQ editor Kevs caught something about them on NPR. While I loves me some This American Life and All Things Considered (yes, I am old and white), I was under the impression that their musical selections were exclusively of the 15 century Viennese or 19th century Oklahoman variety. Not so, as Dengue Fever are surely the best psychedelic Cambodian band around. Check out “Tiger Phone Card” and tell me you’re not hooked for life. I’ve been listening to their new album Venus on Earth pretty much constantly for the past month, and then lo and behold, my favorite radio show played them last week! I had planned on taking credit for their mounting mainstream success by writing a column about them for a future issue (which I will still likely do), but it looks like they’re doing just fine without me. In any case, if you’ll be doing yourself a favor by checking out their new album or catching them on their current tour (I’ll be seeing them at the Orange Show in Houston).
